Bible Commentary

As many already know, the Bible is our source of spiritual nourishment to help us grow as Christians. However, it seems that many of us are guilty of not reading it. Instead, we rely on our preachers and Sunday School teachers to do it for us.

Did you know?: 88% of American households have a copy of the Bible. 37% of Americans actually read it. In a world where morals are declining, the solutions to much of it's problems can be ...

First, the threat of false ...
